Monitor Lamps

IMPORTANT:  In all  instructions on control functions.  Items designated by a number inside a circle
(For example  10  ) are transmitter controls normally accessable and operated in flight.
Items designated by a number within a box (For example 10 ) are adjustment  functions  not operated

while in flight.

•Lamp A Power Monitor

• When  the  power  switch  23  is set to ON, this lamp flashes on
briefly and then goes out momentarily as the Fail Safe data is auto-
matically  matically transmitted to the receiver. Fail Safe data is
transmitted every 60 seconds at which time the lamp also goes out
momentarily. If the transmitter Nicd battery nears full discharge,

this  lamp starts  blinking,  indicating that the power error  backup
function is activated. When this occurs,  transmitter  memory func-
tion settings  are lost and must be reset.

Lamp B 3 -> 6, 7 -> 2 / 3 -> 8 Mix

This  lamp comes on when Safety  Switch 7  and/or 33  is set to
ACT position,  indicating that throttle — flap, spoiler -> elevator
mixing and/or throttle —  pitch control mixing functions are  activat-

ed. This  lamp will  blink when transmitter  control  switch II is 

set

to ON  (placing these functions in operation).

Lamp C 6, 7 -> 2 Mix 

32

• This  lamp comes on when Safety Switch  32]  is set to ON  (flap,
spoiler — elevator  mix) or CH7 OFF (flap -> elevator mix) position.
This  lamp blinks  when  transmitter  control switch  10  is set to ON.

When the power switch  23

is set to ON, lamp  A  will

go out momentarily.

This indicates automatic
data transmission on and is

not a failure.

Lamp  D Snap Roll

•When  Safety  Switch 29 is set to ACT (snap roll function  acti-
vated), this lamp blinks.  When the Snap Roll switch  13  is pulled,
this  lamp continues  blinking.

Power switch
• The  transmitter  power ON-OFF  switch is pro-
vided with a locking feature to prevent acciden-
tal movement. To operate the switch, pull the

knob gently  outwards  and set to the desired

position  (UP-ON,  DOWN=OFF).

Hook
Metal hook for the accessory neck strap.

Level meter

•This  meter indicates the transmitter battery
voltage  and output power.
•When  the antenna  26  is extended  fully and
the power switch 23 is set to ON, the pointer
should move to the white zone.
• If  the  transmitter RF Module 32 is not in-
stalled,  the meter pointer  will  not move.
• If the meter pointer moves to the red zone,
indicating  that the Nicd battery voltage is low,

the signal  range will  become shorter. If the

Tachometer/timer 2 1  power switch is ON, the
battery alarm function will operate after about
one more flight.  When the meter pointer stops
at the boundary between the white and red

zones, recharge the battery.

Antenna
Strong 1m 

10cm telescoping antenna.  Extend

the antenna to its full height when using the
transmitter. The antenna will  lock in place with
a click when pulled up to its full height.

Carrying  handle

Tachometer sensor connector
• When  not  using  this connector and the charg-
ing socket 29, cover them with the rubber-
backed cover supplied to protect  them against

dust.

Charging socket and DSC (Direct Servo Con-
troller) connector

•This connector is used as both the charging
socket and DSC connector. See page 10 for
charging instructions.

Lever head

The length of the lever head can be adjusted to fit
the operator.

, by turning them and

in the arrow direction,  and adjust the head to the
most comfortable  length.
